We went here for breakfast and I was told the only thing that is gluten free are the plain pancakes. Kinda disappointing after a long wait.

I told my server I had celiac and she knew. I didnt have to explain it to her. When I asked the server to make sure they don't put pancake mix in my eggs she didn't bat an eye. I got gf pancakes, eggs and bacon. All was very good. The pancakes were a little dry, but nothing butter doesn't fix. They were very fluffy too. Nice vibe and very friendly staff. Good coffee.

We joined the waitlist and grabbed a menu before going in and taking our seats. The menu is clearly marked with Vegetarian, Vegan, and Gluten-Free options. The only two options marked gluten free were their Steel Cut Oats and gluten free pancakes.

Great food, extensive menu and a knowledgeable staff. I had the Baja Breakfast tacos and they were delicious! Not everything is marked with a GF, but I spoke with the server and she walked me through options. Also, the mimosa flight is really fun!

I got the Heuvos Rancheros with corn tortillas. The beans are a little underflavored, but everything else is so delicious! This restaurant also has an option for gluten free pancakes, which I might try next time :)

No true gluten free menu. 2 items are marked gluten free: gf pancakes and oatmeal. No gluten free bread options. Most items can be prepared gluten free but unsure if they are celiac friendly. Great breakfast menu otherwise. Coffee is tasty as well.

I ordered am omlette with home fries and fruit (they allowed me to sub a bread for a 2nd side.) All food was fresh and good and it came out very quickly.
